We were all screaming! "Course that was part of the fun of it. The Shining is quite scary too. I've never read the book though. And Jaws. Again, I've never read the book! But the movie is pretty scary... or was in it's day. When I was in junior high, they showed The Pit and the Pendulum

The Shining is quite scary too. I’ve never read the book though.

And Jaws. Again, I’ve never read the book! But the movie is pretty scary… or was in it’s day.

I have always like The Fall of the House of Usher and The Black Cat. I was just thinking of Halloween reading and from the bottom of my shelf I unearthed this giant short story collection of Poe.

My first ever experience with Poe was in junior high reading Masque of the Red Death and soon afterward I read Fall of the House of Usher, so both of those rank really high on my list. I think movies and books can creep me out fairly equally depending on how they are written/filmed. Film is probably easier to get creeped out with though.
